Mazel tov to all of us for completing this auspicious accomplishment of preparing for the Rebbe's birthday by learning from the Rebbe's Torah and specifically learning from the Igros which is a very special kind of limud. We've spoken about it, those who have been tuning in throughout the past 30 days know that we've spoken about many times about some of the unique features of the Igros. And I won't review all of that. These classes are are on archive and you can watch them, rewatch them, you can go back. But I'll just say one point which is and I've said this before, but I'll say it again tonight. Everything that the Rebbe taught has practical application, everything. Even the deepest spiritual concept in a maamar that's talking about layers or levels of of of pre-creation, of Seder Hishtalshelus, before worlds exist, even that has some type of practical application for our lives if you're willing to think about it and and work at it. But when you learn the Igros where the Rebbe is writing to a real person about a real issue and giving insight it's so clear and obvious just how practical and real the Rebbe's worldview is. And at the same time absolutely spiritual and sublime and elevated. And I think in the egress you see the melding of those two things. Something that's eminently practical and at the same time absolutely otherworldly and eternal. And it's just an amazing gift to be able to tap into that. Especially like we've been doing on a regular basis for the past 30 days. Uh there's a booklet that you should have received, the special souvenir booklet which was printed on this occasion of Yud-Aleph Nissan. Tavshin Pay Bays, 120
